Cowboys fans ... would you rather have Tony Romo or Matt Schaub as your team's QB?

“Tony is so much on the page with us,” Jones said on the NFL Network recently. “I really would hate to be sitting here talking about getting better, and starting fresh at quarterback and not having Romo. He gets criticized and I always say, ‘Good, now tell me who you want me to have there at quarterback? Go pick that guy for me for the next game.”

Well, Cowboys Nation, here’s your chance. In the 11th part of a SportsDayDFW.com series, we’re going to let you have your say. Would you rather have Tony Romo or … ?

We realize, of course, that most of these scenarios wouldn’t – and in many cases – couldn’t happen, but it’s the off-season. The draft is a couple of months away. This is just for fun.

So, Cowboys fans … would you rather have Tony Romo as your quarterback or Houston’s Matt Schaub?

The case for Romo: Their stats were remarkable similar for 2012. But Romo can only dream of playing for a team with the balance of the Houston Texans. Put Romo behind that offensive line, with Arian Foster to hand off to and dump passes to, Andre Johnson to throw to, good tight ends … no doubt the Cowboys would have won the NFC East.

The case for Schaub: Schaub has been a remarkably consistent, though seldom spectacular, regular-season player. His passer rating has been above 90 percent the past five seasons. But like Romo, Schaub leaves Texans fans thinking there should be more. In six seasons in Houston, he’s won only one playoff game, which came this season. And Houston, which seemed like a lock to have the No. 1 playoff seed in the AFC, coughed it up down the stretch and had to play at New England in the divisional round. Season over.
